Through Argentine Tango, you will feel connected, find community, and feed your soul! The classes will focus on connection, communication between lead and follow, "milonga" walking patterns, and musicality. Students will learn two fundamental patterns. Our goal is for students to complete this 6-part session feeling like they have a solid grasp of Tango fundamentals, and are eager and ready to continue towards complex figures introduced in the following session.
Please bring shoes that allow you to pivot in place (these can also be regular shoes with slip-covers).
No partner required.
The current six week class concludes on October 16th and a new six week class begins on October 30th.
Arrive early for 20 minutes pre-class practice time starting at 6.20!
Kathleen Wiens kickstarted her dance journey as a student of the Professional Division of the Royal Winnipeg Ballet. For 20 years, she has made the social dance-floor a second home while living in LA, Phoenix, Montreal, Winnipeg and across Europe. She brings a legacy learning from her former teachers, each a world champion in their style. She was a member and performer with Liz Lira Dance Company (Los Angeles), UCLA Salsa Society, Imperial Ballroom IDS (Phoenix), and San Tropez (Montreal). After dabbling with Argentine Tango for a decade, she finally saw the light and made a full-time commitment to the magic of the close embrace. Her classes are an invitation for all to find their place in this magical and surprisingly accessible dance!
